1. Insert both fork legs into the fork clamps.
Tighten the fork bridge lower pinch bolts (1) to
the specified torque:
15 lbf·ft (20 N·m, 2.0 kgf·m)
2. Tighten the air cylinder unit (2) and/or fork
damper (3) to the specified torque using the
lock nut wrench (4):
Actual:
56 lbf·ft (76 N·m, 7.7 kgf·m)
Torque wrench scale reading:
51 lbf·ft (69 N·m, 7.0 kgf·m), using a 20 in
(500 mm) long deflecting beam type torque
wrench.
• Lock nut wrench 07WMA-KZ30100
When using the lock nut wrench, use a 20 in (500
mm) long deflecting beam type torque wrench.
The lock nut wrench increases the torque wrench’s
leverage, so the torque wrench reading will be less
than the torque actually applied to the air cylinder
unit and/or fork damper.
3. Tighten fork cap assembly (5) to the specified
torque.
22 lbf·ft (30 N·m, 3.1 kgf·m)
4. For ease of releasing air pressure after the right
fork is installed, loosen the fork bridge lower
pinch bolts and position the outer tube so that
the fork air pressure release screw is in front of
the compression damping adjuster. Align the
groove (6) in the outer tube with the top surface
of the upper fork bridge (7).
5. For ease of releasing air pressure after the left
fork is installed, loosen the fork bridge lower
pinch bolts and position the outer tube so that
the fork air pressure release screw facing
rearward. Align the groove (6) in the outer tube
with the top surface of the upper fork bridge
(7).
